Phants Work Light Before State Finals Tar Heels Meet Catawba Tomorrow Having admirably tucked the game of games under their belts at Durham Saturday night, the Carolina White Phantoms went through light workouts yester day afternoon in preparation for next to the last game of the sea son with Catawba college in Sal isbury tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. Carolina will hold the favored position, but the Tar Heels have a tough encounter with Little Creek Naval base at Norfolk Sat urday night. Little Cree has the sixth ranking club in the South according to the ratings of Dick Dunkel, and the sailors are sla ted to give the Phants a real run for their money. "We don't know a thing about the team," Coach Ben Carnevale said last night "We only have their record to look at, and it is plenty impres sive. We expect one of our tough est ball games." The tilt tomorrow with Cataw ba will be the last performance of the Tar Heels in the state un til the Conference tournament the end of the month. In their last meeting, Carolina won easily over the Indians but since that time the Catawba lads have shown considerable improve ment, winning nine of 12 starts in North State loop competition The hosts will have the advan tage of their home courts this time, too, and they, may be hard to handle there. On top of the Southern con ference now by virtue of its 54-44 win over Duke Saturday night, Carolina now possesses an im pressive 25 and 2 season record, one which will be hard to match anywhere in the country. Two records have already been bro ken this year, and another may fall soon. A new scoring record to top last year's 1,345 now ex ists and is increasing game by game, and a record number of wins has also been set. The pre vious mark was 23.
